It seems to run much of the planet and can go pretty quick when there are not bureaucracies slowing it.

I'm not sure how assumed that is. From Wikipeda: >According to Stephen J. Lukasik, who was deputy director (1967–1970) and Director of DARPA (1970–1975): >The goal was to exploit new computer technologies to meet the needs of mil

It's kind of easy to abuse too. I think if you want benefits for life you just claim clinical depression which can't really be disproved. Welfare has exceeded income tax for a while https://fullfact.org/economy&#x2

I have emails from gmail, hotmail, yahoo and my own domain. Also many browsers. I use Google stuff mostly because it works best. It's sort of how the free market is supposed to work?

The biggest thing wrong is Russia's gold isn't in the EU. It's actually the other way round - Russia has kind of stolen Spain's gold, at least has it and won't return it.

It's not quite a mafia state yet. We've yet to see Trump opponents fall out of windows.

The US constitution is strong against despots and pro law. It's being tested now but I think maga too will pass. The US is largely immune to being invaded due to having a lot of guns and a lot of ocean. This long predates Marshall.

Impressed they write 1000+ words without saying Trump. I mean he's attacking Canada, threatening European territory in Greenland, rolling out the red carpet for the guy Europe's at war with. What do you expect?

I suspect AI will save more people than it kills so we may not have to do much tolerating.

Sounds like they don't have anything that new. Still good to keep an eye on things.

There never was a clear original definition so people come up with their own ones. But for me the significant thing is being able to do the stuff people do including substituting for them in jobs like inventing better AI. I don't think

They do new stuff all the time. Ask your AI to draw a gerbil riding a unicycle around Pluto and you'd get an image that hasn't been there before. If by genuinely new you mean without any help from past culture, do humans do that?

I think it rates Soho top for going out but says to live in Deptford which is kind of interesting. I've lived around London most of my life but not hung out there.

Yeah similar. When I leave firefox running on the macbook, after a couple of days I get an out of memory, 32GB used type error (8GB macbook). Maybe it's the sites I have open keep requesting stuff? Not sure.

I was going to say the same - I haven't noticed any deterioration switching to lite. The user interface is a bit different which took getting used to but I think I now prefer the one in lite.

Boyle's take was the companies have iffy financing but it's all declared in the small print in their financial reports so not fraud as such, but they kind of rely on the public skipping over that and not caring. It reminds me a bi

If you ^F for "spreadsheet" in the article there's an example of poor data.

Patrick Boyle had a vid specifically on whether there was Enron style fraud. The conclusion was no, though he thinks things may be a bit bubbly https://youtu.be/NufJ7g63KSY

I think he deliberately looks at doomer facts. I'm not sure it's cynical so much as a genuine belief that it's all nonsense. But IMO the belief is based on a lack of understanding of AI.

As someone with a bit of understanding of accounts and finance I don't think Ed's analysis is very good. He's not someone who would pass a finance exam.

To win the war some clear definition of the objectives and what winning is might help. Trump has declared victory many times and there are a lot of rationales out there https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rationale_for_the_20

I don't think the above is a problem. It's what democracy was designed for. At the moment voters vote in capitalists because that's what produces the best life quality. When AI takes over they can vote more for socialist, to

Bad behaviour from CEOs is an old problem and we have ways of dealing with it such as passing laws and regulations. Most of the worst problems I see in the world seem to be bad politicians / presidents and not so much bad CEOs. Getting
